Hello! I'm Mervi, a current Associate Consultant at Bain & Company, where I work on tech, consumer / retail, and private equity due diligences. My journey in consulting began with a summer internship at L.E.K. Consulting, and currently am a Senior Associate Consultant at Bain. I've been passionate about helping others break into this competitive field and am an active member of the UC Berkeley recruiting team, helping with on-campus recruitment and resume selection. In the fall, I will be starting my MBA at the Wharton School of Business, so also happy to speak and provide guidance on those looking to get their MBA as I have recently gone through the process myself. I've successfully coached 5+ individuals, guiding them through the intricacies of the consulting application process, including case interviews and resume review. If you're looking to navigate the path to a consulting career or obtain an MBA, feel free to reach out—I’m here to help you succeed!

I've spent over a decade inside some of the most competitive firms you're trying to break into. As a former Senior Manager at BCG and Accenture, I've lived the process from both sides: as a practitioner advising Fortune 500 clients, and a coach who has helped 1,150+ candidates achieve a 73% offer rate at MBB and other top-tier firms. My approach isn't generic prep. It's built on real case experience across financial services, aerospace & defense, and technology (to name a few) - paired with a structured methodology that sharpens your story, tightens your frameworks, and prepares you to perform under pressure. I work with candidates at every stage - career switchers, MBA applicants, and experienced hires - with a focus on behavioral mastery, case precision, and fit narrative. If you're serious about landing a consulting offer, let's build a plan that gets you there.

As a former Senior Associate Consultant at Bain & Company, I bring extensive experience in management consulting, having led key projects and managed junior members across various industries. I have helped conduct first-round interviews for Bain's AC and ACI program, co-led recruitment programming, and helped dozens of candidates land roles at Bain and other MBB / Top 5 firms. Regardless of where you are in your career journey, I'm here to support you every step of the way!

Over the last seven years, I've coached countless clients through how to network to land a consulting interview and then nail that interview. I landed in Consulting from a liberal arts background - I was a Middle East Studies and Behavioral Science major - and also have experience making sure that students outside of quant-heavy backgrounds feel comfortable approaching the quantitative side of these interviews. Folks I've coached have been successful at landing at McKinsey, BCG, and Bain.

As a past intern and incoming associate consultant at Bain & Company, I bring a strong foundation in strategic problem-solving and analytical skills honed through my diverse experiences in civil engineering and leadership roles. I have successfully coached 20+ individuals, helping them navigate the competitive landscape of management consulting. Whether you're looking to master case interviews or refine your application strategy, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.

Welcome to my profile! With an MBA from Michigan's Ross School of Business and a robust career at industry giants like Google, Amazon, and Square, I am well-equipped to guide you into the world of management consulting. My experience as a Senior Program Manager at Google and Supply Planning Manager at Square has sharpened my strategic planning and project management skills, essential for consulting success. Let's connect to develop a tailored strategy that will help you achieve your consulting career goals!

Ready to crack the case interview code? I'm here to help you unlock offers at McKinsey, BCG, Bain, and other top consulting firms. As a former BCG consultant who consistently ranked in the top quartile and served as an active interviewer, I know exactly what these firms look for—and more importantly, how to help you deliver it. My consulting journey started when I secured offers from all three MBB firms (McKinsey, BCG, and Bain), ultimately choosing BCG where I spent three transformative years solving complex business problems and developing the analytical rigor that defines great consultants. But what truly sets me apart as a coach is my dual perspective: I've been in your shoes as a candidate, and I've sat across the table as the interviewer making the final decision. Over the past several years, I've channeled this insider knowledge into coaching 50+ students who have successfully landed offers at top management consulting firms. My approach goes beyond teaching frameworks—I help you think like a consultant, communicate with clarity under pressure, and tell a compelling story that resonates with interviewers. Whether you're struggling with case structuring, feeling nervous about behavioral interviews, or simply want to maximize your chances of breaking into consulting, I provide personalized, actionable guidance tailored to your specific background and target firms. My students don't just get offers; they get the confidence and skills to thrive in their consulting careers from day one. Let's work together to turn your consulting ambitions into reality. The path to MBB is challenging, but with the right preparation and mindset, it's absolutely achievable.

I have extensive interviewing experience, including giving cases, from throughout my professional career. These include MBA admissions interviews, MBB consulting interviews, and behavioral interviews in a variety of forms. I have also given countless mock interviews and have experience giving very detailed, nuanced feedback and tips to help candidates find immediate growth opportunities. More specifically, prior to Booth, I interviewed >100 of people during my time at Cornerstone Research, where I ended my time as the Head of Recruiting for the Boston office for the 2015 season. While at Booth, I conducted MBA Admissions interviews for applicants. With respect to management consulting, I was selected as a BCG MBA fellow prior to starting at Booth and successfully navigated the summer internship recruiting process to be a Bain Summer Associate. Since then, I have given numerous live interviews on behalf of Bain as well as helped countless students while at Booth and at Bain learn how to case successfully. I am really excited to start working with more prospective MBA applicants and management consultants navigate the interview process. From helping to craft behavioral interview answers to learning case frameworks to running practice cases, I am excited to work with you to address your particular needs and feedback areas.
